`West Wing' coming west to San Jose

For its season finale Wednesday, ``The West Wing'' comes west to San Jose. Well, in looks, anyway. You'll recognize the site where the TV series' fictional Democratic National Convention is supposed to be choosing its next presidential candidate: HP Pavilion. ``Warner Bros. called last week to get permission to use exterior shots of the arena,'' reports Tom Manheim, the city's outreach manager. ``For this week's show. I guess that shows how tight their production schedule is.'' And how perfect the Shark Tank would be for a gathering of politicians.
